Executive Summary
S&ME conducted an asbestos and lead-based paint assessment of the Logistics Readiness Flight Building
(Building 958) located on Alabama Road on the McEntire Joint National Guard Base (MCJNGB) in Hopkins, South
Carolina on September 4, 2019. The building is a single-story metal framed structure with metal siding and roofing. The structure consists of several offices, restrooms, conference room, break room, and warehouse. The structure measures approximately 3,200 square feet. The purpose of the assessment was to identify asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) and lead-based paint coatings associated with the structure prior to demolition activities. The structure was occupied at the time of the assessment.
Asbestos The asbestos assessment was performed in general accordance with the South Carolina Department of Health and
Environmental Control (SCDHEC) Regulation 61-86.1, Standards of Performance for Asbestos Projects effective May
27, 2011 and with the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) and the Asbestos
Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA).
The asbestos assessment included the bulk sampling and analysis of suspect ACMs from the subject structure.
The suspect materials identified in the structure consist of drywall and associated joint compound, acoustical ceiling tile, baseboard mastic, carpet mastic, and door and window caulk.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and SCDHEC define materials as asbestos-containing if an asbestos content of greater than one percent (>1%) is detected in a representative sample. Asbestos, in concentrations greater than one percent, was not identified as a result of the assessment.
Lead-Based Paint
Painted surfaces throughout the interior and exterior of the subject building were considered suspect and analyzed for lead content using an X-Ray Fluoresnce (XRF) analyzer. The coated surfaces exceeding the SCDHEC disposal criteria of 0.7 milligrams per square centimeter (mg/cm2) were considered lead-based paint for the purpose of this assessment. No tested surfaces exceeded the 0.7 mg/cm2 threshold for lead based paint or the
XRF Level of Detection limit.
This summary is for convenience only and should not be relied upon without first reading the full contents of this report, including appended materials.
1.0 Introduction
Frankfurt-Short-Bruza Associates, P.C. (FSB) retained S&ME to conduct an asbestos and lead-based paint assessment of the Logistic Flight Readiness Building (Building 958) located on Alabama Road on the McEntire
Joint National Guard Base (MCJNGB) in Hopkins, South Carolina. The assessment was performed by Travis Knight, CHMM, CIEC, of S&ME on September 4, 2019. Mr. Knight is an Asbestos Building Inspector licensed by the South
Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (SCDHEC). An Asbestos-Containing Material (ACM) is defined by State and Federal regulations as a building material containing greater than one percent (>1%) of one
Hopkins, South Carolina
S&ME Project No. 1461-19-038
September 12, 2019 2 of the six asbestos minerals regulated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
This asbestos and lead-based paint assessment was performed in general accordance with S&ME Proposal No.
14-1800722R3, dated July 24, 2019 and SCDHEC Regulation 61-86.1.
Demolition and renovation activities in public and commercial buildings are regulated by OSHA, EPA and SCDHEC.
The EPA and SCDHEC require asbestos assessments, conducted by licensed individuals, prior to renovation and/or demolition projects. Code 40 of Federal Regulations Part 61, Subpart M, Final Rule, National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) and SCDHEC Regulation 61-86.1 require asbestos assessments, followed by the proper removal, and disposal of ACM that is affected by renovation or demolition. The identification of ACMs will aid in the prevention of occupational exposures and/or environmental releases of airborne asbestos.
Identification of ACM is also required by OSHA 1926.1101. The EPA, OSHA and SCDHEC define ACM as materials containing greater than one (1) percent asbestos in a representative sample. However, OSHA also regulates materials containing less than or equal to one percent asbestos.
2.0 Asbestos Assessment
2.1 Purpose
The purpose of the asbestos assessment was to identify the presence and quantity of asbestos-containing materials associated with the interior and exterior of the subject structure prior to demolition activities. The identification of ACMs will aid in the prevention of occupational exposures and/or environmental releases of airborne asbestos. Identification of ACMs also complies with Title 40 Code of the Federal Regulations, part 61, and State Regulation 61-86.1 enforced by the SCDHEC, along with Title 29 Code of Federal Regulations, part 1926 enforced by OSHA.
2.2 Site Description
Building 958 is a single-story metal framed structure with metal siding and metal roof. The structure is approximately 3,200 square feet. The structure consists of several offices, conference room, restrooms, breakroom, and warehouse. We understand the structure is scheduled for demolition activities. The structure was occupied at the time of the assessment.
The following sections describe the assessment procedures used, results of the suspect ACMs sampled and analyzed, and conclusions and recommendations regarding the subject site as related to ACMs.
2.3 Investigative Procedures and Analysis
A visual assessment of the referenced structure was performed to determine the homogeneous areas (HAs) of suspect ACMs. Based on EPA definitions used in the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA), 40 CFR
763, an HA of suspect asbestos-containing building material has the same color and texture and is thought to be installed within the same timeframe. S&ME assessed the interior and exterior of the structure, including roofing materials for suspect ACMs, surfacing materials, and miscellaneous materials. Significant destructive investigative
Hopkins, South Carolina
S&ME Project No. 1461-19-038
September 12, 2019 3 techniques and sampling were not performed as part of this assessment. Consequently, the possibility exists that suspect materials were not detected in inaccessible areas such as flooring overlays, pipe chases, locked rooms, or wall voids or in areas deemed unsafe to enter by the asbestos inspectors. If additional suspect materials are discovered during future renovation or demolition activities, bulk samples should be collected and analyzed for asbestos content.
Suspect flooring materials identified in the structure consist of carpet mastic. Suspect surfacing materials consisted of joint compound associated with drywall system. No suspect TSI was observed. Additional suspect
ACMs that were observed and sampled include drywall, baseboard mastic, acoustical ceiling tiles, and exterior caulking.
A sampling strategy was developed to provide representative samples of suspect asbestos-containing materials in accordance with OSHA, SCDHEC and EPA. Bulk samples were then extracted from the suspect ACMs, recorded on a chain of custody record and submitted to S&ME’s Analytical asbestos laboratory and EMSL Analytical’s asbestos laboratory in Pineville, North Carolina for analysis via the following methods:
Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM)
The suspect materials were analyzed by trained microscopists using PLM techniques coupled with dispersion staining in accordance with EPA Test Method Title 40 Code of Federal Regulations, Chapter I (1-1-87 edition), Part
763, Subpart F-APPENDIX A. This method identifies asbestos mineral fibers based on six optical characteristics:
morphology, birefringence, refractive index, extinction angle, sign of elongation and dispersion staining colors.
The laboratory analysis reports the specific type of asbestos identified (there are six asbestos minerals) and the percentage of asbestos present.
Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM)
In accordance with SCDHEC Regulation 61-86.1, Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) confirmation analysis is required to be performed on one sample of any non-friable organically bound material (NOB) that tests negative via PLM analysis. The TEM analysis was performed using EPA 600 Method in accordance with ASTM E2356.
Both the PLM and the TEM laboratories are accredited by the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation
Program (NVLAP), which is administered by the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
2.4 Assessment
Identified ACMs were assessed based on the observed condition (good, damaged or significantly damaged) and potential for disturbance. Identified ACMs were also categorized based on the EPA’s NESHAP regulation categories. A friable ACM is classified as an ACM that can be crumbled to a powder by moderate hand pressure.
A non-friable ACM is classified as either Category I or Category II non-friable ACM. Category I and Category II non-friable ACMs are distinguished from each other by their fiber release potential when damaged. Generally, Category I non-friable ACM, which by definition includes intact asbestos-containing roofing materials, gaskets, packing, and resilient floor coverings is less likely to become friable and release fibers in a damaged state.
Category II non-friable ACM include all other non-friable ACMs excluding Category I that have a high probability of being rendered friable during removal activities or demolition. All friable ACM, Category I non-friable ACM that has become friable, Category I non-friable ACM that will be or has been subjected to sanding, grinding, cutting or
Hopkins, South Carolina
S&ME Project No. 1461-19-038
September 12, 2019 4 abrading, or Category II non-friable ACM that has a high probability of becoming or has become crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by the forces expected to act on the material in the course of demolition or renovation operations are considered to be a Regulated Asbestos-Containing Material (RACM).
2.5 Findings and Results
The asbestos assessment conducted on September 4, 2019 included the quantification and random bulk sampling of various suspect asbestos-containing materials located on the interior and exterior of the subject structure. Of the representative materials sampled and analyzed during this assessment, asbestos in concentrations >1% was not identified.
A material with an asbestos content less than or equal to one percent is not classified as an ACM applicable to
EPA and SCDHEC; however, trace levels of asbestos (less than one percent) in a material is subject to OSHA regulatory requirements in 29 CFR 1926.1101, to include, but not limited to, worker protection, using wet methods, proper clean-up, use of proper tools/equipment, engineering controls, etc.
In accordance with SCDHEC Regulation 61-86.1, TEM analysis was performed on one sample of each of the non-friable, organically-bound (NOB) materials that displayed a result of no asbestos detected or less than 1% asbestos via PLM analysis. NOBs consist of materials such as vinyl floor tiles, vinyl baseboards and mastics. Please refer to Table I-I in Appendix I for more detail regarding which samples of NOB materials were submitted for TEM analysis. The TEM analysis confirmed that no asbestos is present in the samples that were analyzed at concentrations >1%.
Photographs of site conditions are provided in Appendix II. The laboratory reports are provided in Appendix IV.
3.0 Lead-Based Paint Assessment
3.1 Investigative Procedures
The lead-based paint assessment was conducted for compliance with the SCDHEC limit of 0.7 milligrams (mg) of lead per square centimeter (cm2) of painted surface for lead-based paint coated waste. SCDHEC, Health Division defines lead-based paint as a coating containing lead in quantities ≥0.7 mg/cm2 (SCDHEC, Health Division definition #4-53-1320f). Any coated surfaces meeting or exceeding the SCDHEC limit of 0.7 mg/cm2 were considered lead-based paint for the purpose of this assessment.
OSHA does not recognize a threshold level of lead for definition purposes, only the presence or absence of lead.
The current OSHA regulations recognize an airborne action level of thirty micrograms of lead per cubic meter of air (30 µg/m3) during an eight-hour day and a permissible exposure level of fifty micrograms per cubic meter (50 µg/m3).
Representative covered building components and surfaces were analyzed utilizing a Niton XLp-300A X-Ray
Fluorescence (XRF) spectrum analyzer (serial #95004). The suspect painted finishes were selected based on the color of the topcoat and the underlying paint layers and/or the substrate on which it was applied. The possibility

Attached in Appendix III is a summary of the paint readings analyzed by the XRF spectrum lead analyzer. The XRF summary provides the sample numbers, sample location, component, substrate, paint color, condition, and results.
3.2 Findings and Results
Coated surfaces throughout the interior and exterior of the subject structure were tested for the presence of lead-based paint. Coated surfaces meeting or exceeding the SCDHEC limit of 0.7 milligrams of lead per square centimeter (0.7 mg/cm2) were considered lead-based paint for the purpose of this assessment. No tested surfaces exceeded the 0.7 mg/cm2 for lead based paint or the XRF Level of Detection limit.
4.0 Conclusions and Recommendations
The asbestos and lead-based paint assessment conducted on Building 958 located on Alabama Road at MCJNGB in Hopkins, South Carolina did not identify the presence of asbestos-containing materials or lead-based paint. If additional suspect ACMs not included in this report are discovered and will be disturbed by the renovation/demolition activities, bulk samples must be collected by a licensed asbestos inspector and analyzed for asbestos content, prior to disturbance of the suspect material(s).
SCDHEC requires a 10-working day written notification including submittal of this asbestos assessment report prior to building demolition. This report should be provided to contractors and design entities associated with the building demolition to ensure compliance with SCDHEC requirements for building demolitions.

Present In Representative Sample). RCF= (Refractory Ceramic Fiber) The results relate only to the items tested.
The sample may not be fully representative of the larger material in question. This sheet may not be reproduced except with permission from SME, Inc. This report may not be used to claim product endorsement by NVLAP or any agency of the U.S. Government. Although Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM/Dispersion Staining)
(Method EPA 600/R-93/116) is the specified method for analysis of bulk material samples for asbestos under the EPA Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act, there have been reports that this method may not identify asbestos when fiber sizes are extremely small or if they are bound in a resinous material. Such materials include floor tile, mastic and asphaltic roofing. Currently, reanalysis by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) to verify results of <1% or "None Detected" for these materials is recommended.
